1Shock

2Short Circuit

Solid State Drives, or SSDs, are innovative data storage devices that deliver high performance, reliability, and quality by using NAND Flash memory instead of the magnetic disks used in traditional Hard Disk Drives (HDDs). SSDs provide very fast PC booting and application loading speeds and perform exceptionally well in multi-tasking environments – all while consuming less power, emitting very little heat, producing no noise, and offering outstanding stability compared to conventional HDDs.

3. Precautions

Injury or product damage may occur if the following guidelines are not followed.

SSDs are built to withstand shock and vibration and can protect data with greater safety than conventional HDDs. However, please protect the product against severe shock. Excessive shock may damage SSD components and may also cause hardware detection failures or operational failures when installed in your PC. In addition, severe shock may open or break the SSD cover.

Please keep metal objects out of the SATA interface circuit. The SSD may short circuit if the SATA interface comes into contact with a metal object or is exposed to electric shock. This may cause hardware detection failures or operational failures.

3Disassemble/

Damage/ Removal

Please do not disassemble the SSD, damage the SSD, or remove the sticker or the label affixed on the product. Any product that has had its case opened or its label damaged or removed shall not be covered by the warranty.
